The Daily Mirror reports that Victoria Beckham turned away at least 12 models for being too thin. In an industry where exposed ribs and disastrous image retouching are the norm, Beckham's insistence on portraying a positive image is most commendable.

Implications - Beckham wanted to make sure that her collection was worn proudly by models who look healthy. The models in her show were no smaller than a size four and no larger than a size six. The audience should be focusing on the clothing; not how underfed a model is looking.
